javascript - Chart.js - Plot line graph with X , Y coordinates

Question

I'm trying to create a simple line graph with x,y coordinates but i'm getting a blank page .

I don't want to set labels , but have them generated automatically from the x,y coordinates. I think chartjs already implements that but my syntax is wrong.

var x = new Chart(document.getElementById("myChart1"), {
    type: 'line',
    data: {
        datasets: [{
            label: "Test",
            data: [{
                x: 0,
                y: 5
            }, {
                x: 5,
                y: 10
            }, {
                x: 8,
                y: 5
            }, {
                x: 15,
                y: 0
            }],
        }]
    },
    options: {
        responsive: true,
    }
});

Any idea how to fix the code above ?

I believe, what you are looking for, is a scatter graph, not line.

var x = new Chart(document.getElementById("myChart1"), {
   type: 'scatter',
   data: {
      datasets: [{
         label: "Test",
         data: [{
            x: 0,
            y: 5
         }, {
            x: 5,
            y: 10
         }, {
            x: 8,
            y: 5
         }, {
            x: 15,
            y: 0
         }],
      }]
   },
   options: {
      responsive: true
   }
});
